Nicest Bus Conversion I Have Ever Seen!!

UPDATE!!! Phil and Rhea Crook are the VERY VERY Proud Owners of the beautiful 1983 Silver Eagle!!!
This video found me back at Premium Coach Group in Glibert, Arizona. I was doing a 3rd party inspection on a rare and pristine 1997 American Carriage bus conversion that will be for sale.
On some level the inspection was a waste of time because I hardly found anything wrong with it.
Even though my RV walk thru videos don't get too many views, I found myself so impressed I had to make a video showing it to the world.
Hopefully you can make it to the end of my "fanboy" love letter to the coach owner and builder.
All inquires on the bus should be to:

[@MakinEndsMeet69]

I would have to say that is one beautiful coach but as I have not heard the mileage yet and yes it's a 97 but I can say one thing for sure if it's kept inside in an environment that's made to keep stuff nice and it hasn't been driven well of course it's going to be perfect! Anything will stay in mint condition as long as it's in the right environment with the right people looking after it I mean come on I've seen 1982 motorcycles with no mileage on them on showroom floors in mint condition the reason being they don't get used. And I'm willing to bet this is really suspect of the same thing although it is a beautiful coach I only wish the guy that owned my 96 Silverado would have took care of the body like that as a 96 Silverado everything works on it perfectly but the body wow they didn't take care of it anyway enough rambling thank you so much for sharing this video you can appreciate mint mint stuff like this.

I realize how late I am, but I still have to say thanks for the tour. A lot of people throw around words like "immaculate" and "pristine" but they truly do describe this beautiful coach. I have seen much newer examples that don't even come close to the condition seen here. The phenomenal layout and build are also worth mention in my opinion. The 1990's vibe certainly isn't my favourite and any shade of green is my least favourite, but the condition of everything is such that I couldn't bring myself to change anything. Just an outstanding specimen.

I've watched this 6 times and each time I am almost without words. This is a work of art - should be a travelling museum . Somehow that coach seems to have more richness than todays multi million dollar buses. It is different, elegant, classic, comfortable, very well thought out, meticulous. There is a simple elegance that is warm and cozy, inviting. timeless. In a nutshell, inpsiring and longing for more of that kind today. The sheer excitement in your voice draws me in. It was genuine, almost lost for words.. What a true gem and godsend!. You sure show it with enthusiasm and love. The entire video is like watching a feel good movie. We feel fabulous at the end.

Magic of depreciation. The 12 year old Wanderlodge (1995 model, purchased used in 2007), cost me $120K out the door. List price (when new) was $525K. Used bus conversions (when done well) can be a very good deal. Even if the manufacturer has gone out of business, most of the stuff is standard parts available in the RV or Bus industry. (e.g. Even windshields are available for most coaches -- and the Blue Bird school bus parts were able to provide a replacement tie-rod end for my coach when one was needed.)

[@petemasterson8852]

The magic of the randomness of KZbin, I just discovered this video. Truly a beautiful bus conversion that, after more than 20 years is in incredible shape. (The previous owner(s) must have been fanatical at maintenance.) In 2007, I purchased a 1995 Blue Bird Wanderlodge --- that was in "good" condition, but (even at only 12 years old) showed a LOT more wear and tear. (I was probably the third or forth owner, and the immediately previous owner had been full-timing in it for a few years.) The features were quite similar to this coach (no slide outs) and the Wanderlodge was quite well made. I was given advice to "hold out" $10K (today I'd say more like $20K) to pay for upgrades and modifications --- and unexpected repairs. Indeed, after getting it home from Texas, I found a tendency for the engine to "run hot." (Not good -- a rebuild on the DD Series 60 would cost a fortune.) I found a radiator shop that had a contract with our local transit district (familiar with busses) -- that found the radiator, outside the area swept by the fan, was completely closed up with oily dust. (Eventually, I noticed that oil fumes venting from the engine, were pulled back through the radiator whenever the coach was stopped at idle.) Expensive, but I replaced the radiator core with a newer design (that was being used on the transit busses) that was more efficient and coolant never went near redline ever again. (I also had the radiator steam cleaned every couple of years.) I note that the radiator was behind the charge air cooler (from the outside) and was heavily shrouded (for fan efficiency) from the inside -- so actually LOOKING at the radiator was very hard to do. Whomever purchases this coach will certainly have a beauty!

Drove those Eagles in the 1970s. Nothing rode or handled like and Eagle. Especially running the PA tpke at night with less traffic.

Your grin tells it all about the coach. It’s beautiful. You’re right it is amazing. New coach owners new to watch this.

[@AZExpert]

I appreciate that!

[@paulster56]

Pride of ownership to the max. Very impressive coach! Thanks for the great tour!

[@noahbluesky1218]

Wowowowowowoow!!! This coach is insane! I thought I was in love with my 94 Navigator but this is next level and then some 😳😳😳 Thank you so much for sharing!!

[@AZExpert]

Glad you liked it!

[@eagle1333]

Now that's how one takes care of a Coach! Seeing the remote controls in order got me excited a perfect example of why O.C.D is good.....Drives my wife nuts...lol Thanks for the tour brother awesome!

[@AZExpert]

that was my favorite part and why I made the video. Thank you!

[@deeleecourville]

I love your passion. The only RV walkthrough I didn’t skip through.

[@AZExpert]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@mgkelly3389]

What an exciting find! Thank you for sharing that beautiful coach.

[@anneparisi5677]

That's beautiful. So wish my Dad was still around, cause that's the kind of bus I'd enjoy. So puts today's coaches to shame. Thanks for sharing.

[@AZExpert]

I understand

[@bobdobalina2931]

I absolutely love your enthusiasm for this wonderful bus. There are just three things that I would change. 1). Upgrade the TVs 2). Upgrade the radio 3). Change the title into my name And that's all.

[@AZExpert]

I like the last item!

[@vanillagator]

I am impressed with your professionalism sir!! The fact you were concerned 'not' to walk on the carpet and donned your booties, says it all!! Good video. Loved the unit. Wish it were in our drive!!

[@AZExpert]

I appreciate that!

[@BruiserFL]

Very nice review. Although I don't own an RV, I love watching these RV videos. Being that you're an RV mechanic, I appreciate and trust your professional perspective. It is a refreshing angle from so many of the other RV reviews. Thanks for sharing this with us.

[@AZExpert]

Thanks for watching!!

[@Enjoytheinbetween]

Beautiful!!!! I would love to own that. Amazing craftsmanship

[@AZExpert]

You and me both!

[@elcaminomant]

That is an amazing coach! The subtle eagle in the paint is a nice touch too

[@AZExpert]

you notice everything! Thanks!

[@claztube]

I was perplexed by the Eagle (decal/sticker) on the frige door though...?

[@tensiperez7555]

This is amazing! I can see it gave you thrills to work on this gorgeous lady! She is a beauty!

[@AZExpert]

Thank you so much!

[@idreecemian2192]

I am watching one year after you have posted, for the first time there is some made such a beautiful comprehensive spontaneous unedited presentation which shows your depth of knowledge and love for your work, hats off to you for presenting this beauty

[@AZExpert]

Thank you so much 😀

[@goldendreamer2122]

There is one thing that I will say for certain. If I ever own an RV and it needs worked on I would do my best to find you and have you work on it. Your passion in this video for the RVs at hand is stellar

[@AZExpert]

thank you!

[@goldendreamer2122]

Welcome 😊

[@truth11seeker11]

It was a pleasure to watch you express your appreciation for this bus/rv

[@AZExpert]

Thank you, and thanks for watching!

[@dianewolfe3056]

That bus should be put in a museum, no one else would probably ever take care of this coach like previous owner. He/she must have died because I don’t think he/she would have ever sold this beauty after 25 years of care like this.

[@AZExpert]

It's certainly a beauty

[@Jeppe.P.Bjerget]

What a amazing RV/bus. It is so beautiful build. I just dream that i could drive that from the east to the west coast. Thank you for showing it. And to the family that had that bus, what a way to keep it clean. You have to use hours to take car of it like this. Best wishes from Jan in Norway

[@AZExpert]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@hughhemington9559]

The "bunk house" looks like a safe room.

[@marlenen6130]

Yeah, I was thinking “Panic Room” too, or maybe a safe. I bet there is more hidden storage spots in that coach. It would have been convenient for a serial killer to have this too. No ones gonna see the tied up person in that basement storage.

[@sheri4673]

Looked like the closet to me. Also a great escape if someone comes on board with a K9. Looks like a bus a dealer would own.

[@tressinar]

It almost looks like a entertainers bus the way it is set up and the colors as well. I love it

[@Bergerons_Review]

It's a tour bus.

[@genefogarty5395]

American Eagles are iconic and with very good reason. Built like the proverbial brick Sh**house, they were the epitome of quality in every aspect. If you were a country singer in the "old days", lol, this was the statement that said you'd arrived at the top. There aren't too many tour buses mentioned specifically by brand in song, but American Eagle found their way into lyrics for decades in the country music genre for a reason. And they also placed prominently in a ton of country music videos. The number of legendary singers that championed their love affair with American Eagle coaches reads like a list of country music royalty. I'd like to know what it sells for, it's worth every penny, I guarantee that.

[@wandacox9540]

I’m with you so nice to see they took such great care. It is a beautiful coach!

[@AZExpert]

It really is!

[@alphpup3281]

That “bunkhouse” is where they keep the jewels.

[@AZExpert]

lol

[@kalenagy]

hahah

[@maxinpains6937]

LoL 🤣 Well, as I recall back in a days ago there were movie called "Lethal weapon" Mel Gibson was starred in. In that movie there was one scenes that he sneaks out from custom built secret exit that he had on his trailer . That was one coolest features for anybody who had R.V. motorhome., etc at that era . I believe that was designer for this bus where he got his idea from. Yeah 80s 90s was the jewel... LoL 😉
